Leaving a Name on the List, Dugu Bo's Request

In the center of the giant serpent, Dugu Bo knelt on one knee, gasping for breath, his aura utterly withered.

It seemed as if he might collapse into unconsciousness at any moment.

Pfft—!

Dugu Bo clutched his chest and violently spat out a mouthful of blood.

Staring at the Wolf Marshal, who stood imposingly with the Sand King Wolf Claw Staff in hand, he forced out a difficult question: "You... who exactly are you?!"

"My name is Canglang Douluo. Remember it well." Jun Hao wiped the Sand King Wolf Claw Staff in his hand as he spoke flatly.

Upon hearing this, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo murmured in confusion:

"Canglang Douluo..."

"When did such a powerful Title Douluo appear on the continent?"

Though his words were soft, they still reached Jun Hao's ears clearly.

Jun Hao let out a scornful laugh and shook his head. "Maybe it's not that I'm too strong, but that you're too weak."

At these words, Dugu Bo's face darkened, and he froze in place.

But Jun Hao paid no heed to Dugu Bo's stunned silence and continued:

"A treasure like this belongs to the capable. You can't hold it."

"Leave now, and I'll spare your life."

Dugu Bo opened his mouth but found nothing to say.

For the other party to let him go at this point was already an act of great mercy.

If he kept making a fuss, given Jun Hao's domineering nature, he might truly face mortal danger.

Yet, looking at the Ice and Fire Spring Eye ahead, Dugu Bo felt deep reluctance.

After all, this was a precious treasure that could suppress the poison in his body.

Perhaps this Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye could even cure the poison within him.

To give it up so easily was truly hard to accept.

Just then, the Heavenly Screen in the sky above shifted once more.

[Combat Strength Ranking Fourteenth Place: Zhenyue Douluo Yuezhong]

[Affiliated Faction: Bright Realm]

[Martial Soul: Earth Tiger Armor]

[Rank: Ninety-eighth Rank Assault Type Super Douluo]

[Evaluation: Zhenyue Douluo Yuezhong, as the Earth Element Hall Master of the Bright Realm, wields the earth element's power through his Martial Soul, Earth Tiger Armor. As long as his feet stand on the ground, he can draw endless energy and possesses astonishing jumping ability, making him a true king of the earth. Unfortunately, Yuezhong has yet to comprehend the heavy, all-bearing meaning within the Earth Tiger Armor and has not transformed into a true earth king, hence ranking fourteenth.]

[Reward: Soul Power Increased by One Level, all Soul Ring Lifespans increased by six thousand five hundred years, one Earth Insight, one seventy-thousand-year Right Leg Soul Bone.]

--

[Combat Strength Ranking Thirteenth Place: Jin'e Douluo]

[Affiliated Faction: Martial Soul Hall]

[Martial Soul: Golden Crocodile King]

[Rank: Ninety-eighth Rank Assault Type Super Douluo]

[Evaluation: As the Second Worship of the Martial Soul Hall, Jin'e Douluo is second only to the Great Offering, Qian Daoliu, in the entire Worship Hall. Having immersed himself in the world of Title Douluo for decades, his strength is immense. His Martial Soul, the Golden Crocodile King, is a top-tier Beast Martial Soul, no less than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, with terrifying attack power and equally fearsome defense, hence ranking thirteenth.]

[Reward: Soul Power Increased by One Level, all Soul Ring Lifespans increased by seven thousand years, enhancement of the Golden Crocodile King's attack and defense power, one seventy-five-thousand-year Right Arm Soul Bone.]

"Heh, so Yuezhong's strength is actually above mine?"

Dōngsēn, who had been observing the Immortal Grasses within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, was also startled by the commotion in the sky.

When he saw that it was Yuezhong who had made the list, he shook his head helplessly.

He couldn't help but curse under his breath: "Damn it!"

"Whenever I ask, every single one says their strength hasn't improved, hasn't improved."

"And now that the Heavenly Screen has descended, out of the five of us, I'm dead last!"

"You bastards really hid it deep! And you're real dogs!"

Jun Hao heard this, immediately turned his head, flashed a mouthful of white teeth, and said with a grin:

"Hehe, Hall Master Dōngsēn, you're already very strong."

"Not like me—I didn't even squeeze into the tail end of the Combat Strength Ranking."

With that, he looked up at the Heavenly Screen again, seeming somewhat reflective: "Still, the fact that the Worship Hall masters of the Martial Soul Hall can rank above Hall Master Yuezhong is truly not to be underestimated."

However, before Dōngsēn could reply, Dugu Bo, who was quietly circulating his soul power to recover in the distance, heard Jun Hao's words.

Ignoring his own injuries, he suddenly leaped up.

His eyes burned with fervor, staring straight at Jun Hao.

This startled even Jun Hao, but he quickly recovered.

The Sand King Wolf Claw Staff in his hand pointed directly at the agitated Dugu Bo.

"You there, are you trying to trade blows with me?"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo glanced at the terrifying Purple Gold Claw Staff, his face turning pale as he shook his head repeatedly.

Just as Jun Hao was utterly bewildered, Dugu Bo turned his fiery gaze toward Dong Sen beside him.

His voice trembled with excitement: "Canglang Douluo, you, just now, what did you call him?!"

Jun Hao raised an eyebrow, unsure what Dugu Bo was playing at.

Seeing Jun Hao didn't reply, Dugu Bo cast all caution aside.

Limping unsteadily, he shuffled toward Dong Sen.

At this sight, Jun Hao frowned deeply.

Staff in hand, he prepared to strike Dugu Bo again.

But Dong Sen behind him patted his shoulder and shook his head.

Then he stepped forward, standing before Jun Hao, watching calmly as Dugu Bo slowly approached.

Dugu Bo stood shakily before Dong Sen, sensing the unfathomable aura radiating from the man.

His expression was one of utter shock.

He cupped his hands and bowed respectfully: "M-might I ask if Senior is Cang Xiao Douluo of the Bright Realm, Dong Sen?"

Dong Sen chuckled lightly and nodded: "What business do you have with me?"

At these words, Dugu Bo grew even more excited: "I beg Senior to save me!"

Dong Sen raised an eyebrow, then smiled faintly: "You want me to help you with the toxins in your body?"

Dugu Bo nodded frantically: "Senior sees clearly! Senior sees clearly!"

"This junior is willing to offer this entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye as a gift, to join the Bright Realm."

"I only beg Senior to save me!"

Jun Hao, arms crossed as he listened, couldn't help but snort: "Hah, even if you don't offer it, we can still take it!"

As Dugu Bo stood there awkwardly, Dong Sen patted Jun Hao's shoulder, signaling him to say no more.

Yet just as hope seemed within reach.

The next moment, Dong Sen's words plunged Dugu Bo back into despair.

"I can help remove the toxins accumulated in your body."

"But it's ultimately a temporary fix."

"The toxins in your body are released by your Martial Soul. Even if cleared now, they will reappear over time."

Dong Sen shook his head lightly, speaking softly.

But seeing Dugu Bo's despairing expression, he added: "I could also remove the toxins from your Martial Soul itself, but..."

"As I recall, you've built your reputation on this Poison Skill, haven't you?"
